Hello everyone!

I will make sure to actually publish this post, and not accidentally save it like yesterday :)

The reading for tonight is:

Exodus 9-10

Pay attention to the other plagues, we are going to be talking tomorrow about why God chose those specific curses, and how they relate to the signs of the times before the second coming. All these exciting parallels!

See you tomorrow :)

Hello :)

I hope you all remembered to hand your report cards to your parents! You all are doing awesome, and I am grateful to have you ALL in my class.

Here is the reading for tonight:

Exodus 5 (yes, I said 6 in class also, but I changed my mind so just read 5)


This is a troubling time for the Hebrews because in Chapter 5 they actually get worked more harshly because Pharaoh is angry with Moses asking to "Let my people go". Is there a time where the Lord has taught you something, or strengthened your testimony, through a trial in your life?

I love to hear from you guys, so hopefully you really think about an answer to this question :)

Love you all,

Sis. Findley

Hello!

I wanted to do a quick recap about what we learned today so that when you do your reading, you are aware of Moses's life up to this point:


  • Pharaoh was worried about the large numbers of Hebrews, so he put them into bondage (doing hard labor). 
  • This didn't stop their numbers from growing so he then had their sons killed at birth. 
  • The Midwives believed in God so they would not kill them and told Pharaoh that the women just had the babies before they got there. 
  • God blessed the Midwives and their own families.
  • Moses is born and hid for 3 months.
  • His mother sends him down the river in a small boat.
  • Daughter of Pharaoh finds the baby and has mercy on him, raises Moses as her own. 
  • She calls Moses's mom to be his Midwife (watch over him as he grows), not knowing that she is his real mother. 
  • Moses is then able to learn from his mother the true principles of the gospel which prepares him to be prophet many years later. 
  • Moses finds an Egyptian beating a slave to death, so he protects the Hebrew slave and ends up killing the Egyptian. 
  • He has to flee Egypt. He becomes a shepard. 

Ok, there is our quick recap :) Here is your reading for tonight:

Exodus 3-4

While reading chapter 3, pay attention to what the Lord asks of Moses because he is on holy ground. When are we asked to do that?

In Chapter 4, pay close attention to the concerns that Moses has about being a prophet. What signs/miracles does the Lord say he will perform, through Moses, to help the descendants of Israel believe him?

You guys are amazing, and I love you see your wonderful faces every day :)

Love,

Oh man guys, I tricked you again! The reading for tomorrow is actually JUST:

Hooray! Two chapters less :) And that's why we read the blog my friends.

While reading, make notes about what the Pharaoh dreams about. Dram a picture, make a graph, anything that will help you understand what the dreams meant.

Hey guys,

Sorry, the reading is actually 39 and 40! If you don't think someone is going to read the blog, maybe call that person and help them out so that they are on the same page as us :)


While reading, pay attention the ups and downs that Joseph faces. Also, what does Joseph do when faced with temptation from Potiphar's wife?

See you tomorrow!

Hello everyone,

Your reading is going to be a little different for tomorrow's class. Instead of a chapter, I would like you to:

Find a scripture that relates to why you come to seminary (i.e. gain blessings, be spiritually fed). Bring that scripture to class and answer:

Why do YOU come to seminary?

See you tomorrow :)
